Blast From The Past: Rick Moses

William R. Moses

'Were you aware of his HOT older brother Rick?!! He was definitely a junior high lustful crush I had even though I never actually got to watch his show "Young Dan'L Boone"!!'


I've had a crush on William R. (Billy) Moses since seeing him in 1988's Mystic Pizza.  I've also caught some old episodes of Falcon Crest on DVD, especially Billy's shirtless scenes.  I wasn't aware however of his 'hot' older brother, until a FH readers sent me a message with the quote I posted about.


Great genes obviously were passed down from Billy and Rick's father, executive Richard Cantrell Moses, Sr. and their actress mother Marian McCargo.  Billy and Rick also have two other brothers, Graham, a composer and Harry.  Harry, who most closely resembles Billy is also an actor but has also recently become a minister.


Rick, the oldest of the four brothers, got his start on stage in the late 60's.  By the time the 70's came around, Rick was appearing on television on shows including; Room 222,  The F.B.I and Mission Impossible.  Most television watchers at the time, know Rick from his stints on General Hospital, and in the short lived CBS series Young Dan'l Boone.

I'm too young to remember ever seeing Rick on TV, but there are a ton of clips form his television appearances on YouTube.  He was obviously big for a short amount of time, as he has many fans, especially from his work in Young Dan'l Boone.  Moses basically left acting after his turn on General Hospital, but has recorded several albums, and one of his songs, If I Could Just Fall in Love, was a huge hit in Germany.
